About this title

Synopsis

Matteo Thun, born in 1952, is renowned as one of the founder of Scottsass Associati and of Memphis. His highly individual path is presented here for the first time in the form of a monograph. Endowed with a quite striking, baroque formal language, he has cultivated in quite unparalleled manner the art of designing "anonymous” mass articles for industry. The combination of fun and seriousness, style and gag, content and fa�ade continually challenge him. Yet his emphasis on the decorative, on surfaces, have made him a decidedly controversial figure. He works for companies such as AEG, Philipps, Martin Stoll, Campari, Swatch and many others in the areas of product and interior design, packaging and communication. Five internationally renowned authors, all authorities on his work, describe Matteo Thun, his person and his working methods.

Review

As a cofounder of the design group Memphis, Italian architect and designer Matteo Thun has been responsible for some of the most instantly identifiable product styles of recent times. This book is an inventory of Thun's career from 1980 to the present, in an A to Z format. (Tali Jaffe Cultured Magazine 2013-03-01)
